Eight million flowers raining down on Costa Rica

This is what it looks like when eight million petals rains down over a town.

Costa Rica was showered with an explosion of colour when, as part of their Sony campaign, advertising agency McCann made it rain petals over the town of Irazu Volcano.

The method behind the flower madness was to use one petal to represent every pixel in Sony’s 4K Ultra HD TV.

It took more than two weeks for local residents and the agency to pick the petals but it was definitely worth it – the result is incredible.
